Band Concerts

While on the subject. of Boosting
Our City. the thought come to mind
. and
§ at the same time give to our rari—

gents and their friends a. worth-
while treat. would be to have a. band
' concert here once a. week during
the months of July and August.

This could be done. without draw-
ing heavily on the purse of any cue.
by a committee which would gather
contributions of, say. a. 81 from
311086 interested. One dollar for
sight or nine good band concerts, it
seems to us, would be readily ob-
tainable from five or six hundred
citizens. And a. matter of this kind
should be spread among as large a
number as possible to create the
necessary interest. Perhaps the Ki-
wanis club would take this in hand.

The Green in front of St. Paul's
church would be a fine place. it is

The truth is the crows are being

they make good target practice. and

lovers of New England landscapes

part of the picture. or the earth

his wary and watchful inspection
as they passed his tree or field in
the spring. and the faint caving

would be gone. And probably
when it was gone. the arch blund-

that he had made a. . triple plated
